Silent hovering glowing object

I am 50 yrs old and am handicapped. I was taking out the trash, when I realized the dog was acting odd, he usually runs out to me, but he was hiding in his dog house. I called him but he would not come out. Then I felt like I was being watched, so I turned my wheelchair around and there it was. A glowing blue green object just above the tree line at he end of my yard. My first instinct was to get out of there, but the power had failed on the wheel chair. All I could do was sit there in terror for the next 3 minutes as this thing hovered silently back and forth across the back of my yard. I am not sure what to make of this. I have NEVER seen anything like this in my life. It kept changing colors, and never made sound. I was scared to death! It eventually shot straight up and dissappeard into the sky. Then my chair came on and I got the heck back in the house. I was afraid to tell anyone about this until now. I hope you believe me. I was very skeptical, but no longer! Thanks for your time.
